What with all their investigations and criminal charges?

I'm surprised Trump didn't pardon him and then name him acting attorney general.

approves of another gangster. No big surprise. And Bulger only started hating the DOJ when his pet FBI agent stopped protecting him.

Who gives a crap?

A website desperate for clicks that is catering to it’s fan base.

For your attention and clicks.

The Failing Universal Hub and its fake news, amirite?

Trump did say he loved the poorly educated.

I'd be willing to guess that quite a few unsavory characters had good things to say about our previous president, too.

Find me a mobster convicted of multiple murders and who ran guns to the IRA who said nice things about Obama.

You dont think a guy from CHICAGO does have any negative connections.

When asked to supply a mobster convicted of multiple murders and who ran guns to the IRA, you come back with fraud and money laundering. Your perspectives are skewed. Please note that a murderous gangster is not just a "negative connection."

Paul Manafort.

Obama has Irish heritage and was
celebrated when he visited, Trump... who has Scottish ancestry and likely Irish as well, boasts about his golf course and is disliked by the Irish. so your point is?

By Murkin on Sun, 06/09/2019 - 8:15am.

Bill Ayers. Wow, that was an easy one.

Wake me when he's convicted.

I'm so old that I remember when "guilt by association" was a Republican thing. Suddenly the end justifies the means.

What you believe must be fact because you believe it.

Maybe someday you will learn the difference between your fantasies and factual reality.

What's it like to have so much in common with criminal thugs like Bulger and the KKK and yet still think you have the moral high ground? You deserve a gold medal for mental gymnastics.

By perruptor on Sun, 06/09/2019 - 6:00am.

Who are you saying has things in common with those people? If you are addressing anyone but Trump, your aim is off.

By BostonDog on Sat, 06/08/2019 - 11:59pm.

Trump often talks of his fondness for murdering dictators in oppressive countries (North Korea, Philippines, Russia). None of his predecessors had such nice things to say about these thugs. So there's that.

Guessing something is massively easier than proving something.

Don't bother Roman with the facts - believing and guessing are SO MUCH EASIER!

But he really loved Bill Weld the US Attorney who did nothing to stop the outlaw and his criminal organization. He even sang a song at the annual St.Patricks day breakfast called Whitey on the MBTA, mocking the efforts of law enforcement's attempt to capture the crime lord.

at the St. Patrick's Day breakfast? Source?

By StillFromDorchester on Sun, 06/09/2019 - 4:07pm.

It was a big joke.
Everyone chuckled at the Gangster and his semi Gangster brother.

By StillFromDorchester on Sun, 06/09/2019 - 9:01am.

Who cares? He won't be down for breakfast and is irrelevant now.

What happens to a TV personality and former Boston Globe marquee columnist when his deep hatred for President Trump and love for Whitey Jimmy Bulger come into conflict on live TV when it's revealed Bulger strongly admired Trump? It will be interesting to see if Mike Barnicle shows up tomorrow and defends his friend who "kept the drugs out of Southie."

*Note: While at the Globe, Mike Barnicle called Whitey Bulger "Jimmy," a name Bulger allowed to be used only by family and dear friends at that time.

On how to play it but Kevin runs in different circles, his pals are firefighters., cops and other first responders...even if they don't know who he is.

Funny, I was thinking of the mirror conflict Howie Carr must be having.

Someone sort-of on the same side as him in shilling for POTUS, some quotes he can steal & use, and they're dead so they won't complain about Howie using their stuff...
...versus...
it's Bulger.
